I flashed the Tmo stock rom using ODIN on my bell vibrant...everything else seems to be fine but as soon as i plug in the USB cable...the phone shuts down :S:S
i ran odin a second time in case it didnt flash properly...same thing still.
i can use the phone for like half a sec before it powers off and then the charging battery screen comes up..the one u get if ur chargin ur phone when its off.
HELP!?!?!?
im still on the stock rom but i need to put the ROM on the SD card
even in recovery it does this...i installed Clockwork recovery and tried to mount from there..but as soon as i plug in the cable it shut down.
ive tried diff cables and diff computers...i dont know what else it could b :S:S
ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!!
Got the same issue with my first SGS, got it replaced since it's an hardware failure issue...and you can't do squat after!
I have the same freaking problem, some one no a fix?
basically i messed up the bootloaders now it does this (bear with me)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkFsZK79XYQ
it only does this when plugged into the wall and it will not do anything if plugged into usb port on the pc, my guess now is the battery is so flat that it wont do a thing any more! i almost got it to run via odin on the pc but the battery drained so bad that it wont respond, i have left it plugged in for at least 6 hours with then just the same response just on and off on and off.
can i take the battery out and charge it via a separate charger to get some life into it to then flash the stock rom via odin?
any ideas would be great! i don't mind taking it apart but don't want to if i'm going to fry the battery i have all sorts of wall chargers, can i join the + and - from the wall charger to the correct wires on the battery for it to charge? i have a multimeter to test the batteries voltage. any suggestions?
[UPDATE 1 ] flashed overcome stock rom then pc wont connect to odin even in recovery mode, :recovery is stock: :rom is stock: from the overcome website, cant flash any rom via odin as it wotn connect, error message usb device not recognised' how to fix this issue? maybe update.zip via sdcard within stock recovery? which rom and for gt-p1000 united kingdom. i tried to reinstall samsung kies for the correct driver but still the same issue, cannot connect after flashing. i have been following this guide http://p1000.teamovercome.net/?page_id=64 any help with connection would be great or flashing via recovery, almost unbricked but not quite.
my connection problem was due to a faulty usb cable, all is fixed now and i have overcome kratos.installed and running sweet
Hello, I don't think that you have a dead battery. I think your rom has a defect cause your Tab would like to boot. Is it possible to go to recovery or to the download mode? Try to flash something. Does your Tab start this screen flash automaticly by plug on a PC od starts this only if you try to turn it on?
PS: It is possible to remove the battery but it is a little difficult. My suggestion: don't touch the Battery
will not go to download mode or recovery. no response when pushing power power button, all i get is the flashing screen with pc and mobile phone connection.
i left tab connected to the pc for one hour, the tab came on with the pc-phone connection image, i flashed overcome rom via odin with repartition which completed but when it went to reboot it has stayed turned off and wont come on at all even when pressing the power button, no download mode and no recovery, i will wait again for it to come on and try the stock rom, not sure if i've got the correct bootloaders or not.
any ideas?
Have you tried leaving it on the ac outlet? or car charger?
ok slight update. . .
i left it plugged into the pc after it passed the odin flash it then BOOTED i was like WWWAAAAAAHHHHOOOOO bouncing on my chair and feeling very happy indeed the battery is totally dead but is now charging in the wall switched off to get some life back into the battery im so pleased
next steps is to get the overcome rom to flash!

i tried for 6 hours to plug it directly into the wall but nothing worked.
Exact same thing happened to me on the Sprint Tab. Called Samsung and sent the unit in. They sent me a brand new unit the next week.
when plugged into my pc now i get an error message, ' usb device has not been recognised' im thinking its the drivers but not sure where to get them, i have searched.
i have updated the 1st post with more information on this issue.
Your tab was showing a secondary bootloader so if you mess up your primary bootloader with the bootloader patch it'll still be recoverable and as for getting overcome I would recommend upgrading to gingerbread which doesn't have protected bootloaders and flash kratos or Jupiter which are faster than the froyo based overcome rims ;-)

the only issue im having now is the fact that the pc wont recognise the android phone when in download mode.
the only message i get on the screen is 'usb device not recognised' i am then unable to flash a different rom or a stock rom via odin being gingerbread or froyo. thats why im asking if there is an update.zip file that i can flash from the recovery to make the usb mode work as it wont even work with debugging mode on or off and wont show via samsung kies or odin when the tab is booted.

Hi.. Today for the first time i have experienced some strange problem.. When i connect my phone to PC via usb cable, the battery starts charging but my phone doesn't give me the option to mount the SD card.. It doesn't even see the pc it only charges the battery..
I've figured that out by accident, when i tried to use "adb" to connect to my phone, adb couldn't see the phone even though it is connected..
I'm using froyobread rom, and have used it for a couple of days and everything was fine until now.. Any suggestions? Might this be a hardware issue?
Change rom, if it remains then it is hardware problem, if it is solved then you have to reflash the rom or try another..

Kernel?
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
I am almost sure that this is a ROM problem.
Did you full wipe ?
If the problem persists , try opting for another ROM
Hmm try different port on your PC. BTW what kernel do you use, stock? If stock then you might want to try re flashing the rom w/out wiping data and see it still persist if still persist try a clean flash, if still persist then ya might be problem with your usb cable/port or the PC or phone itself.
I've got the same problem but im using LinuXperia Yoper V1 , i did full wipe and install ROM over again , install diffrent ROMs,try plug in the other USB port and all of that ... BUT i dont have the original cable which SE gave us ... mine its not original ;/ but it was working , now its not ;/ same problem as OP ..
Mount via CWM...
In CWM, under Mounts, try connecting phone to computer and mount USB storage. If this can be accessed, then it it likely a rom issue.
Also, when you connect USB to computer, is there a "device software driver installing" notification (on windows) and then does it install driver successfully? If there is no driver installed, the comupter cannot read anything
Thanks for all the replies.. I'm using stock kernel.. I've tried to revert the backup made with xrecovery to the earlier stage when the USB was still working.. And it still doesn't work.. Can't figure this out..
I'm using USB cable that came with the phone.. Original SE cable.
The trick is, after flashing the rom for the first time, it worked great, but a weat or two later, i couldn't use usb.
Tried connecting it to other usb ports, tried connecting it to other PC's.. Doesn't work..
@yusiang1998
I've tried under xrecovery the same option, still doesn't work, I'll try now with CWM and will get back with the results.. If everything else fails, I'll try to revert to a stock backup made with xrecovery.
Okay, just to update.. Mounting the USB from CWM failed.. PC still can't read my phone.. I'm not sure if even my phone can see the PC..
I've noticed another problem - don't know if it's related..
I had FTP Server on my phone and SSH Droid so from time to time when i connect my phone over wifi (on local network) i use my pc to wirelessly download/upload files on to my phone. Now, when this usb problem started to appear, i can't even use those apps.. The service starts sucessfully, but my PC can't connect to my phone address...
And reflashing the rom failed.. And i can't use the flashtool to restore it to factory default settings because of the usb problem :/

Nope.. I havent experienced that. But i don't even charge the phone when it's off.. But what i do experience is sometimes.. After unplugging the charge cable, the led diode still lights in green.. :/
Still can't figure out the usb problem.. Anyone has any other ideas.. Or this is some global X8 problem after a while and has nothing to do with using custom roms xD

yea i got this bug sometimes too ;D
When I had this problem turns out it was the Sony Ericsson USB cable as dodgy. It was only after 2 weeks aswell.

Okay, don't know what happened, don't know how it happened, but everything is fine now.. And it was fine after i charged the phone with the same cable but plugged into car charger.. After i plugged it back into pc, i was able to use USB functions again

What about wall charger? Maybe it is the same? Or maybe it's not even related to the issue and was only temporary. oO
i got a defective Galaxy S from my friend, he said that the usb port dont work, soo it wont charge on a normal charger
now, i bought a universal charger, so ill just charge the battery ( but then i was eager to boot it, i put it on 10mins later )
it wont boot, but when i put it on download mode, it does!
but how can i flash fresh firmware if the usb port aint working?
i believe it was on gingerbread
EDIT: is was working but, the micro usb port is not really working, soo what can i do to root it and install custom rom in it?
EDIT: Fvck, i bricked it, i installed a boot.img (from a custom rom) using mobile odin, it takes time to flash, about 10 mins, and nothing happened, i tried to put it on recovery and the're is no recovery, it kept on bootloop, deym, what can i do? i put it on download mode, but the micro usb port isnt working, so how can i flash it to stock again?
So um, my S3 mini stopped charging while turned on, it only recognizes the charger when it's off, but there's a problem, in SlimKat the offline charging doesn't work, so my phone ends up in bootloop when plugged to the charger... Is there anyway to change roms with the phone like that? Or am I screwed?

Download mode go to stock rom then install custom recovery and your rom of choice, or go into recovery and flash new rom.
Did you already tried to reflash it? If the problem still occurs, try flashing another rom like dmod
